How many of you can answer this question?

They even coloured the set to provide a further clue!

ANOTHER nothingburger of an article

no mention that if the suns make finals they can only take two academy picks

Hmmm, ok - just asking for a friend, what's the ascending version of a deathride?

Ready made

Got anything for us on Jeffo watch?

Sadly no!  The squad was divided into three groups, each doing work on a different part of the ground - I think Jeffo was in one of the areas further from where I was situated.

A few more of Langford:

For those on Langford watch, here are a few pics from today's session.  

Here's NGA prospect Toby Sinnema laying successive tackles on Riv then May:

Here's TMac's group from this morning's time trial - leading over Petty, Melksham, Woey and Laurie.

Petty & co.

Petty, Melk, Woey & Laurie

TMac building a significant lead

Sharp was a machine today - miles ahead of his group

Chandler, McVee, Sparrow & possibly Windsor in a chasing group

Here's one of the groups from the latter set of time trials.  Billings setting the early pace ahead of Trac, Kolt, Salem, etc.

Salem, followed by Rivers, Viney, Roo and Clarry:

Trac taking the lead:

Trac and Kolt breaking away in the push to the finish line from followers led by Billings:

Recovery!

Here are some shots from one of the sets of time trials - part of the squad ran in this one, with the runners broken into three groups spaced around the boundary.

Here's Langford heading up his group.

Followed by Howes (apologies if I mis-identify anyone), Bowser, Koz, Marty Hore, etc.

Kozzy tailed by Hore, AMW and Ricky Mentha:

Koz closing on the finish line:

Here's May and Jefferson:

Here's Luker Kentfield ahead of May and Jeffo:

Here's Turner followed by Fullarton and Aidan Johnson:

Here's some shots of Viney from this morning's session:

This was a particularly evasive passage from him:

That other trainee is Toby Sinnema in the 1st and 4th photos....

Thanks!  I've added that correction to the post in question.

Here are some pics of Clarry from today:

Here he is laying a tackle during the football drills in the latter part of the session:

And another one :-)

Here are some pics of Kalani White from today's training:

Early on was doing a kick-to-kick drill with Dees NGA player Toby Sinnema:

Kalani and Toby Sinnema chatting with Langford:

This was during the football part of the training session after the time trials:

Ok, so here's Gawn & Kalani White at training today - this was taken when they were both almost the same distance from me.  Measuring their heights in pixels from the original version of this image gives the following:

• Gawn: 1668 px
• Kalani: 1627 px

Taking Gawn's height as the published 209 cm, this puts an estimate on Kalani's height at 203.86 ~ 204 cm (approx 6 ft 8 in) - though to be fair it does look like this would be inflated by an inch or so given Gawn is slouched just a little more than Kalani in this frame.

Clarry or Viney?

Viney

Just now, waynewussell said:

Clayton finished well to pip Roo in his group… not leader but impressive drive to the line. Jack Viney ran a brilliant last 200 to get very close to Billings in his group.

His drive and leadership is incredible. Was quick back on to his feet encouraging the others during their recoveries on the ground.

Jack Viney 6 min 41 sec 

Clarry approx 7 Mins. Salo, trac, riv in between.

Sharp and TMac streets in front of their respective groups.

Times were in the 6.40s for an earlier group of talls - 2 km time trial I'd assume?
